18 hours ago- Game studios support - most games don’t support Linux natively (and no, I don’t want compatibility layer upon layer).
- “Default” Linux distribution for average consumers. Average consumers don’t want 2000 distro choices as they will rather stick to one Windows that having to think between many Linux distros and pick one.
- The “default” Linux needs to have the consumer-marketing name of simply “Linux OS”.
It’s not the use case I am referring to - I am speaking about modern day games. As long as Linux is ignored by the gaming companies making AAA titles, it will never be a real option for the entire gaming community. An average gamer doesn’t know nor want to spend time setting up everything and hoping nothing breaks when the OS/layer/game gets the next update. It should be “Install” and then play without ever really thinking about any underlying tech.
